Catamount Film and Arts Center

About Us

was founded in 1975 with a mission of enhancing the cultural climate of northern Vermont and New Hampshire. Integration of the arts into community life has been our guiding principle and we attempt to cultivate awareness and appreciation of the arts through a diversified schedule of film, music, theater, dance, and the visual arts.

The Catamount Art Center opened in 1985 with a 100-seat film theater, galleries, instructional space and offices and has evolved into the focal point for the arts in the area. The Center is the home to the Catamount Film Series which offers nightly screenings of over 50 regional premieres a year along with several special mini-series and programs devoted to Vermont filmmakers. The Video Library contains over 2500 rental units with titles ranging from the classics - both foreign and domestic - to contemporary works and documentaries covering a wide range of subjects.
